My main regret is that there were such clashes between us in the run-up to her death. Perhaps if we had challenged Mum more over the years, keeping her ever-increasing demands in check, we could have been at peace as a family, instead of at war over shoes and toilets, right to the bitter end. He encouraged his mother to die and his only regrets are arguments about shoes and toilets?!

Pray for an end to euthanasia and the conversion of America to a mindset of life!

This woman appeared to be set on dying. Most of the people around her seemed to have doubts about what she was doing, but she did not allow anyone “in” to her decision.
It sounds as though she died as she lived. In the delusion that she somehow was in supreme control of everything.

One of the least conservative sorts of behavior, it seems to me, is to assign to yourself the right to made this decision for someone else, irrespective of their wishes.

Didn’t want chemo because of her beautiful hair and demanded to have clean toilets, no shoe scratches on her floor and griped about fruit juice in her fridge. What memories she’s left behind.

Chuckle; that reminds me of the old joke.
Out in west texas it is so flat...
that if you look out in front of you...
just as far as you can see...
all you can see...
is the back of your own head.
Man, that’s flat!
